Florida’s Republican governor said he would seek to abolish the departments of Education, Commerce and Energy, as well as the IRS.
“If Congress will work with me on doing that, we’ll be able to reduce the size and scope of government,” he added. “If Congress won’t go that far, I’m going to use those agencies to push back against woke ideology and against the leftism that we see creeping into all institutions of American life.”
He’s trying to out Trump Trump. You could say he’s trumping Trump. All in hopes he can steal away enough wacko votes to win.
But he can’t, and he won’t be able to. There is only one Donald Trump and you can’t easily replicate his appeal.
